A Memorial Day remembrance
There were so many heroes that died in Vietnam and other wars that are now forgotten and lost to the ages. So I just wanted to do my tiny little part and memorialize one of them, Danny, an old childhood friend of mine. Here is his story: I grew up with Danny at church in Abilene, Texas. He was 4 yea...

Re: SHOOTING Allen Outlet Mall Multiple Victims
it means that a very small group is pulling the strings in information and the robotic media crowd wiggles all of its fingers and toes. Only the few Conservative outlet can keep a story alive. I've often said that the biggest threat to our country and freedom isn't the government, it's the media. T...

Re: IF You Could Only Have One Gun
Depends on the purpose. Concealed carry, home defense, hunting, EOTHWAWKI survival...?? If it's for "all of the above," I'd go with an AR-10.

Re: Gov Abbott
DNA should be taken from everyone deported. They should be told in both English and their native language that if they return to the U.S. again illegally it is a capital offense. They should be required to read same, in both English and their native language, in writing and sign said document to ac...

Re: Nobody but Trans Secy Pete Buttigieg
Could it be because black drivers are 2.5 times more likely to receive traffic tickets than white drivers?

Re: Deputy Sheriff Aids ATF in Gun-Part Confiscation
The sheriff may have felt a little back-to-the-wall, with two ATF agents standing there grilling him. Sucks, though. I feel more antagonistic towards them than towards the sheriff.

Re: Another Meme Thread
Sorry the link didn't work. Here is the wording without the pretty picture: The United States is 3rd in murders throughout the world. However, if you remove Chicago, Detroit, Washington DC, St. Louis and New Orleans, the United States is then 189th out of 193 countries in the whole world. PS: All 5...

Re: Border situation: Noting to see here
People don't realize the power the cartels have. They're already in all 50 states. And if you cross one of them and they catch you, they'll do things to you that makes ISIS look like a bunch of girl scouts, and don't worry they WILL find you no matter where you go. El Chapo, for example, had over 60...

Cartoon Network goes woke
Now the Cartoon Network, a popular channel for kids after they come home from school, has gone hard-core woke, with special features about pronouns, gender identity, etc. This is just getting out of control. It's becoming monolithic, beyond stopping. Even if we get a conservative president in 2024, ...

Re: Is a club considered "deadly force"?
There are clear cut differences in the law between "force" and "deadly force" and specific code pertaining to when each can and can't be used. Using a gun or knife, for example, is considered using "deadly force," even if you just point it at a person. Not totally corr...

Re: Is a club considered "deadly force"?
Of course. So would being hit with a fist, but using a fist isn't considered "deadly force." The question is not whether or not it would kill someone, but how it is classified in the law.
